Hardware MikroTik hardware general

Hi, I just bought a CCR1036-12g-4S with 4 Gigs of RAM, and see the conntrack max-entries is 475264. If I put 16 Gigs of RAM this numbers would increase?

What kind of memory is supported? Is a normal laptop memory? SODIMM DDR3 slots,DDR3 10600 1333?

The conntrack max-entries is hardcoded? or I´ll reach more than 500k conns.?
I replaced the 4 gig with 8 gig of ram in the mikrotik.

they are not hard-coded, entry count depends on memory available and how much memory entry can take, so with ipv6 enabled you get a lot less entry count compared to ipv4 only router.

If there are free resources you should not worry about running out of conntrack space.
